Pvc-u Pressure Pipe

PVC pressure pipes are manufactured from unplasticised polyvinyl chloride polymer (a thermoplastic material) using the extrusion process. PVC (also known as uPVC and PVC-U) pipes are now widely accepted for use in municipal water supply, industrial and agricultural irrigation and sewerage rising etc mains.

Features:
Unplasticised polyvinyl chloride (PVCu) is one of the most widely used thermoplastic materials for pipe installations. Being odourless and tasteless it is suitable for conveying potable water and many food products. PVCu has excellent chemical resistance.

The good flow characteristics are the result of the smooth bore and has good resistance to abrasion. It is light in weight and easy to join together making PVC-U a good alternative to traditional materials.

PVC-U is resistance to most solution of acids, alkalis, salts and solvents that can be mixed with water.

Applications:
Major potable water supply trunk and reticulation mains
Irrigation and turf watering systems
Industrial process pipelines
Effluent pipelines for pumped sewage, industrial and rural wastes
Slurry pipelines carrying abrasive and corrosive mine or quarry materials
